The Slow Squeeze Of Expectations

Coaching and encouragement happen every day and this helps change to be noticed and reinforced. Once a week, House Managers and Dr. Chester meet individually with each resident to review progress and make sure that all of us are working toward change goals that have been agreed upon and to set new ones as needed. This regular support and feedback meeting is another aspect of the Clinical orientation of Busara.

Busara Recovery Home offers Mental Health Track and Sober Living Home.

Call or Email us for more information.

Each day starts the same at Busara - with hope, positive expectation and support. Those that are in our mental health track participate with the entire community as we gather together in the morning to share goals for the day and to ask for caring accountability. The day ends in much the same way with a evening group where each woman shares the positive aspects of the day and any challenges. Reflection and a journal entry end the day.

During the week, residents are attending their individualized therapies, along with an IOP or PHP program if indicated. Some who are farther along in their journey may be preparing for work or participating in volunteer work in addition to managing the time requirements of their therapies and appropriate groups. Weekends consist of morning programming with an outing in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area generally on a Saturday. Sunday is a more relaxed day and a time for preparing for the week ahead.

Becoming part of the Busara community is also therapeutic and Busara residents are encouraged to volunteer regularly. Dinner is prepared together from the menu planning to the clean-up.

Journey with us!

For those on our mental health track, Busara provides daily programming, coaching and feedback from our DBT trained House Managers. Programming is customized to what is needed by each resident. Examples of topics include not only DBT but emotional resilience strategies, the impact of trauma, managing anxiety and depression, time management and recovery responsibilities, creating healthy relationships, making wise decisions, identifying and managing emotional triggers, being accountable, and understanding your role in the family and more.

Another wonderful testimony from one of our residents.
Busara touching lives. What an amazing feeling to be a blessing.

Busara takes the varied components of treatment and modifies them for a residential setting. The DBT therapeutic model that Busara is founded on, Dr. Chester’s expertise, the constancy of staff, partnership with professionals, a phase model to independent living, a safe, warm, comfortable environment where long lasting change has the nutrients it needs to flourish, in addition to daily therapeutic programming and individual goal setting exemplify a true Therapeutic Support home. Busara is the next level in dual diagnosis aftercare.

Busara is willing to consider working with women that other transitional living facilities may find outside their comfort level. Women who have not been successful in an environment and have been asked to leave that facility, women who have physical conditions that require adjustment of beds, chairs or tables, or women who may be involved in the legal system are 3 examples of residents who have specialized needs We are able to work with these types of residents and others successfully because we provide a balance of care, warmth, structure and clinical knowledge.

As you rest and heal, know that you are thought of warmly and wished a quick recovery. For additional information please contact Dr. Gail Chester at (214) 415-1674 or at [email protected] or visit our website www.mybusara.com

Providing exceptional, clinically based cost effective post treatment care to women over the age of 18 in a therapeutic environment where wisdom, confidence and accomplishment flourish.

These are challenging times for everyone. Many of us across the country have been told that we need to shelter in place and that is a wise decision. Most of us have supportive people around us and positive self-care skills that we can put in place to get through trying times.
For the individual that is soon to leave intensive/inpatient treatment or another therapeutic environment, where to shelter in place and with whom to shelter in place can become an anxiety-producing event. Strong clinically supportive housing is now more important than ever in maintaining the strides that an individual has made in treatment. The world feels more uncertain than ever. Combine that with very newly acquired skills learned but not well-practiced, fear of failure and feeling triggered are very real and likely outcomes.
Busara is OPEN as an essential business and we have availability for the woman that needs both support and structure during this time period. Now more than ever strong clinically-based transitional housing can make a difference for the woman that wants to maintain and strengthen her treatment gains.
We are fully stocked with care, support, wisdom, food, and toilet paper! www.mybusara.com

It reminds us that self-care is important! Take the time to rest and enjoy those moments!

There are no words that can express my thanks for you!
love, Busara

We're here for you.
